Tragedy at Woodbine
EARLY11 writes, "Unfortunately, I think in the quantities of
extremely dry, extremely combustible material would have been very
difficult for a sprinkler system to control. On another note, people
like Ernest Twambe are real heroes and I hope they are recognized
properly. A medal and a stakes race named in his honor would be
appropriate. Also, if Woodbine and the government has the class,
they should take a percent or so of their takeout to assist the
stables and the individuals involved. P.S. - Danny O'Callaghan and
Steve Owens - don't give up. Best wishes."

Medaglia d'Oro vs. War Emblem
CATHERINE623 writes, "Both d'Oro and War Emblem got the early lead
and held their advantage to the wire. I personally was more
impressed with Medaglia d'Oro. He ran some quick fractions and
just demolished the field by more than 13 lengths in quick time.
War Emblem had easy fractions and though he won by open lengths,
the lead was diminishing at the wire (Espinoza hadn't even cocked
the whip on Emblem, so he might have had more). Too bad War Emblem
will be heading to the Pacific Classic next...who knows if we'll get
to see these two meet up before the BC."
